A notice was jointly issued by six departments clarifying the responsibilities of live stream.
Live-stream service providers should complete the Internet Content Provider (ICP) filing, gain certificates for news services, online shows and live streams, and report to local police within 30 days after a show is broadcast.
It also requires real-name registration of live stream viewers and blacklisting of live stream anchors who violate the regulations. (IANS)
